Ivo van Hove's Network, Starring Bryan Cranston, Extends Broadway Run

The acclaimed Broadway transfer of Network, the stage adaptation of Paddy Chayevsky's iconic film, has been extended at the Belasco Theatre through April 28, 2019. Originally slated to run through March 17, the production began previews on November 10 and opened on December 6. Leading the cast is Tony winner Bryan Cranston reprising his Olivier-winning performance from London.

Adapted by Tony winner Lee Hall and directed by Ivo van Hove, Network centers on news anchorman Howard Beale (Cranston) who isn't pulling in viewers. In what is to be his final broadcast, he unravels live on screen, and as the ratings soar, Howard becomes the biggest thing on TV.
